Jessie helped me with TOEFL writing and speaking. Even though I started preparing very late, her materials and advice were very helpful and made me feel much more confident. She’s patient, encouraging, and a great listener. I really enjoyed our lessons.

maybe I'd like to see her more active like a fascilitator. Nevertheless, I liked our class and look forward to a next one
